STSWE22 | The Best Effort: Distributed broadcast production on standard Internet and cloud
From a Streaming Tech Talk at Streaming Tech Sweden in June 2022 by Dennis Buhr from SVT and Johan Bolin from Agile Content.
Cloud production is much more than just porting an SDI stack to software. In fact, porting the SDI stack to software is exactly what should not be done. Embracing internet, cloud, and software in broadcast production is about transforming processes and organizations. It's about embracing fragmentation and allowing the use of a variety of cameras from high-grade TV cameras to mobile phones. It's also about enabling faster productions and new formats that take advantage of the internet. It's about TV and broadcast becoming an application domain on the internet, and what that means for the core product of TV - the content. To make this happen there are several challenges that must be addressed though, including effective transport and synchronization, how to build an architecture that leverages Moore's Law, and cloud capabilities such as elasticity, and so on. This presentation will demonstrate how an SVT-Agile Content project tackles these challenges.
